The Hip Hop Orchestra Brunch - Shoreditch

Saturday afternoons at Blues Kitchen Shoreditch centre around one thing: live hip hop and the Re:Imagined Orchestra alternating with a resident DJ rotation. It's a four-hour stretch of hip hop, Afrobeats and R&B that sits somewhere between brunch and a show. You book a table spot (£15pp), order food when you arrive, and if you want bottomless drinks it's an extra £19.95 for the first 90 minutes.

The day builds in blocks: DJs run the first hour while you settle in with a drink, then the live orchestra takes over for about 45 minutes, back to the DJs, another orchestra slot, and a final set through to 5PM. It's a proper group outing if your crew's into live music on a Saturday afternoon, the kind of thing that stretches from late breakfast into early evening without feeling forced.
